Canvassing with a data center survey today. The overall response I'm getting at the doors today is that people hate this shit. All of it. And they don't use it.

FILE TYPE: Audio Book Transcript
PERIOD: Pre-Expedition
SPEAKER[S]: Strauss, B. [ID: BSTR]
TOPIC: On AI, by Dr. Bernard H. Strauss
SUMMARY: A partial transcript from On AI, first published in 2472. Audio book read by the author.
[BSTR]: What they considered artificial intelligence in the twentieth century, and even deep into the twenty-first, was mimicry. Not true intelligence, but rather a cleverly placed mirror. Essentially, a string of shortcut machines built using shortcuts, then, casually branded with the market-friendly label, "A-I".
[BSTR]: The science I would eventually build my life around could have easily been assimilated into a lesser application of its potential. Lost forever to a simple but ever-insidious mandate, "sell the product, establish the habit, build the brand." To my predecessors' credit.. and despite their "smoke-and-mirror" approach to the science of Artificial Intelligence. The habit was built and a level of comfort, even eagerness, for innovations in "thinking" technologies exploded across public consciousness.
[BSTR]: These "pioneers" of the prior centuries released a genie from its
bottle. Never mind it was the wrong genie, utilizing the wrong](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ygoj4dyta22xkofgmkd2m5m7/bafkreiaybyh6ikvokxdsjmw7y5ylbmcv4phmrnsdgrdtijvevmz7jpevga)

[BSTR]: What is intelligence?
[BSTR]: It is not merely knowledge, or the capacity to contain or quote that knowledge. It has to be more. It is the ability to acquire knowledge, to grasp its ramifications, to transform its data into skills, and to apply those skills effectively with adaptive intent—meaning, the application of reason to deliver a catalyst or response compiled from thecollective whole of an individual's acquired experience.
[BSTR]: There has long been a focus in the study of Artificial Intelligence on intention—the deployment of a system's gathered knowledge as the core defining trait of intelligence. But what is intent without understanding?
[BSTR]: The two, together, rest at the true heart of all endeavors toward
the mapping, and further, the crafting of a non-biological intelligence, genuine mechanical thinking machine.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ygoj4dyta22xkofgmkd2m5m7/bafkreidamvvgldcy6ejps2uvs72guvcu6ljj66t67nwhm3iqu4qbg2v46i)
